<DIV>Yes you did ask that, precisely your words were,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>"You state below that 'God says to love your neighbor, not sell and abuse them', where? In the Bible? You can't use the Bible where it supports your position and then say it's bunk when it doesn't!"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I told you where it says that, precisely;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Matthew 22:34-40</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the<BR>law and the prophets."</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It is the second commandment, that is where it says slavery and abuse of slaves is wrong. </DIV>
<DIV>Because you are suppose to love thy neighbor as thy self.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best Regards,</DIV>
